WHEN THE CAMELLIA BLOOMS

I promise

that I will never make you

or Pil-gu cry.

Yong-sik, you really should be careful.

What if I really end up

liking you?

EPISODE 9

-Well... -Yes?

I guess you like dumplings.

Yes, Pil-gu likes them too.

And who doesn't like dumplings?

Then how about we go to Gaebu Island next weekend to eat giant dumplings?

My gosh.

Why would we go all the way there just to eat dumplings?

Well, it's not just for dumplings.

Then what for?

Goodness. There are so many dumpling restaurants.

Why do we have to go to an island?

I hope you know that things like missing the last ferry is too much of a cliché.

You're hilarious. How uncool.

Dongbaek, they built a bridge to Gaebu Island a decade ago.

Really?

Dongbaek, Gaebu Island

used to be an island that was hard to get to, like you said.

But things have changed since the bridge was built.

You can drive there now, and some people even walk there.

Mom, are you close with him? Why did he come all the way here with you?

Oh, I live in this neighborhood too.

-Where in this neighborhood? -Over there.

Over there? Where?

Pil-gu, you should become a crime scene investigator when you grow up.

Do you like my mom?

What?

If that's the case, stop coming to our bar.

Why?

Don't you like me?

No, I don't.

Hey, you even asked me to help your mom out

the other day, remember?

I hate all the guys who like my mom.

-What? -Mr. No Gyu-tae,

Jun-gi's dad, and the rice cake shop owner.

They all talk casually to my mom, saying they like her.

But they didn't even do anything when Jun-gi's mom was pushing her.

That's what you guys mean by "liking" someone.

Pil-gu, why are you growing up so fast?

He's so quick-witted. Goodness.

Pil-gu.

You see, that's not how I feel about your mom...

-With me, it's different. -It's all the same.

Mom, you told me

that Dad is tall and smart.

My dad is a renowned scholar.

He earned ten doctoral degrees in China.

Even my dad, who's a wonderful man, liked my mom,

but he's doing fine all by himself in China now.

I hate all the guys who are interested in my mom.

CREDIT CARD STATEMENT

Do you plan to join the national team or what?

How could you spend five million won on Pilates?

My mom and I are going to take the classes together.

Even if it's for two people,

spending five million won on Pilates is just crazy.

Do you expect me to take group classes with a bunch of other people?

I have to take private classes.

Because you're Jessica?

Right, Jessica can't take group classes.

Are you drunk?

Mother, you're still awake.

I wasn't going to say this to you,

but even a minister and a plastic surgeon

in Cheongdam-dong wanted Jessica to be their daughter-in-law.

Yes, I know.

You bring it up every time we pass Cheongdam Intersection.

Before she met you, she was just a young naive girl

who did nothing but study.

You shouldn't dare to bring your credit card statement here,

if you have any shame.

Mother, please hear me out.

There are people who can't go to Qingdao because

they don't have 480,000 won.

-What? Qingdao? -He probably had beer.

Just go home and sleep if you're drunk.

Apparently, Kang Jong-ryeol spends five million won

on his wife's Pilates classes,

while someone

can't go to Qingdao

because he doesn't have 480,000 won.

It's...

It's really...

driving me nuts.

Yes.

After 300 meters, turn left.

Were you an athlete back in school?

Hey.

All I did was study.

I was in the regular college track class.

Exactly. I assumed you were a bookworm back in school because you have

such an impressive vocabulary,

but how could you master wakeboarding so quickly?

You're really amazing.

I'm just an ordinary man.

I thought you were going to split the payment for that

into monthly installments,

but you paid the full amount at once.

I thought you were Chairman Jeong Mong-ju.

Hyang-mi.

Jeong Mong-ju is a scholar from the Goryeo period.

If you run for governor, I'll definitely vote for you.

You'll vote for me?

Why me?

Well...

-Does that mean you... -Yes.

I respect you.

Hey.

Think of me as your mentor from now on.

I hope you can be comfortable around me. Don't be intimidated.

I'm not intimidated by you.

Come on. We're close enough.

We are?

Pil-gu.

I don't know about anyone else,

but I won't do anything you don't like.

Stop coming to our bar.

And don't say hi to me at the arcade.

I remember going nuts trying so hard to protect my mom when I was your age.

I know how hard

you're trying to protect your mom,

so why would I deliberately worry and upset you?

Don't lie just to look good.

Why try to protect Ms. Kwak? She doesn't need protection.

Well, anyway...

What I want to say is,

just get a good night's sleep.

You're at the age where you should be eating, playing, and sleeping

as much as you want to,

so just sleep well.

I'll never ruin the fabulous life of an eight-year-old boy.

You're out if I don't like you.

Yes, fully understood.

I'll just...

try to look good in my own way.

Bring the dumplings.

-I have to say, Pil-gu is-- -I'll take the dumplings.

Sure.

-Bye. -Bye.

Hyang-mi, do you like trout?

Both the mom and the son...

They really bug me.

Both the mom and the son are so adorable.

A WISH, AN AFFAIR, AND TURMOIL

There's nothing here. What was he doing?

Only my closest friends know about that trout place.

I don't just take anyone to that restaurant.

In other words, I'm one of your closest friends now.

Only a select few people know about that restaurant.

When you have some time, let's take your friends and--

-Gyu-tae. -Yes?

Will I become the First Lady of Ongsan when you get elected?

What?

We're seeing each other, aren't we?

-What? -Can't you hear me?

This is our first day as a couple.

We're dating as of today,

which means I'll be the First Lady of Ongsan.

My goodness. Hyang-mi, you have a great sense of humor.

I wasn't trying to be funny.

Do you take girls to Yangpyeong when you're not even dating?

All the way to Yangpyeong?

Damn it. What's wrong with this now?

As usual,

the sun rose.

That bastard didn't come home last night.

And I can no longer be the Hong Ja-yeong I was yesterday.

CREDIT CARD STATEMENT

CREDIT CARD STATEMENT

YANGPYEONG WATER SKIING YANGPYEONG WATERSPORTS

Well...

Let's hang out from time to time

as friends who respect each other.

And...

About us going waterskiing together today, let's just leave it at that.

So we water-skied together, but it's not an affair.

We went to Yangpyeong together, but we're not dating.

Gyu-tae, crooks can't be elected as governor.

Why are you always so aggressive? This is too sudden.

Shall I call you Ms. Aggressive?

We spent the whole night together. Why are you saying it's sudden?

That's because the car broke down. Why are you making it sound weird?

As for water skiing, it's a sport.

It's just a fitness-improving sport.

Then you should've brought your wife. Why bring me instead?

It's because we're dating.

Why are you rushing to conclusions?

As you know, I'm...

What? You're married? What about it?

What do you mean?

Why? Are you worried that people will bash us for having an affair?

That people will call you an asshole for cheating on your wife?

You know what, though? This world isn't always such a just place.

Did I step on a landmine?

Even if we had known, we couldn't have told you,

fully knowing how upset you'd be.

Yong-sik has been practically living at Camellia

since moving back.

Maybe Dongbaek gave him some peanuts on the house.

Yes, totally.

Are you ladies having fun? Do you find this entertaining?

Gosh, don't get me wrong. I just meant that

-you shouldn't be lying down like this. -That's right.

You need to take action

before they do something that can't be undone.

Tell him that it's going to be the death of you.

Goodness, that's so petty.

I'd rather beat him up. Why would I do such a thing?

You can't be like that!

You should demand, "Is it Dongbaek or me?

-You must choose one." -Yes, you should.

You definitely can't win after they do it.

"Do it"? Just leave already!

If we can find evidence like saliva or fingerprints...

Why don't we see if we can lift such evidence from...

-In CSI: Miami-- -Are we in Miami?

Why don't you transfer to Miami if you like that place that much?

Why can't you ask them for cooperation?

What do I tell them when I'm handing this over to them?

Is this for a specific case? Is this from a crime scene?

You see, I found this.

But it's piquing my curiosity.

Does Forensics exist to satisfy your curiosity?

There's nothing in that alley, not a single restaurant.

But I saw some prick drinking this and standing there for quite some time.

I also saw his footprints all over the ground...

Stop picking up empty bottles, and just--

No way! I'm not going to Yeong-sim's place.

KARAOKE ROOM MURDER CASE FILE JOKER'S FIRST CASE

What is it?

Go through these. They're case files on Joker.

What?

You're sharing these with me now?

Is it good?

Gosh, you scared me.

You didn't go to work?

Are you enjoying the cod head stew that my mom made?

Yes.

Is she a cod head stew master or what?

Even when your mother comes by three times a week,

I make five side dishes and soup for her every time.

My mom visits us less than three times a year,

and you had to go to a funeral on one of those days?

Even so, my mom brought cod head stew, which you love,

as well as mustard green kimchi.

And your friend's wife just happened to die on that day, right?

You see, liver cancer is scary.

Colon cancer. You said she died from colon cancer.

Right, colon cancer.

That's why his wife suddenly...

-Well... My friend's... -Seok-geun.

Yes. That's why Seok-geun's wife died on the spot.

He's such a blockhead, and I used to find it charming.

COLLEGE PREP ACADEMY, 2001

-Come here. -Jeez, seriously.

Gosh, I mean it. It was those agricultural high school kids.

I was going to pay the class fees, but those punks took all the money.

-I'm sure it's the other way around. -How can I take their money?

How can I do such a thing?

They're all gangsters. How can I take their money?

You just said they were high school kids!

You moron. You can't even dupe anyone because you're so dumb.

You should've just bought me the Motorola phone I asked for.

Gosh, you're driving me up the wall.

Everyone is looking at us.

-You little... -Unlike me, who never reveals anything,

Gyu-tae is so easy to read. And I found that refreshing.

-But the thing is... -It was nice to see everyone.

Those guys we went to the academy with.

-He can't even hide an affair. -It's all useless, though.

Her sudden death made me feel that life is so futile.

We should watch shows like Mysteries of the Human Body often.

You went to the funeral at night.

Why did you put on so much sunscreen?

What?

What did you do with your sunglasses on?

-What? -Did you wear sunglasses to the funeral?

Even the Bible says

stolen water is sweet,

and bread eaten in secret tastes better.

But if you get addicted to that taste,

you may turn into cod head stew yourself in the fiery pits of hell.

ATTACHED DATA EVIDENCE

FOOTPRINT SIZE 250 POSSIBILITY OF AN ACCOMPLICE

What is this? I'm getting a bad feeling.

Who keeps throwing this away here?

I really hate this.

Who's doing this?

-Dongbaek. -Yes?

You and Officer Hwang are like Brangelina of Ongsan.

You're the talk of the town now.

I don't even know how I can face Ms. Kwak now.

Come on. You're interested in him, too.

Hey, what are you talking about?

Why do you keep looking at your watch?

Are you worried because Yong-sik isn't here yet?

Are you excited about something?

Let me see. How many cigarette butts did you throw away?

Don't you worry. Who listens to their moms these days?

Couples breaking up because of their parents

isn't realistic even in soap operas.

Why? I'd break up.

Only when it happens to you can you realize how nasty and disgusting it is.

Pil-gu's dad? Is that why you two broke up?

Why are you so curious about Pil-gu's dad?

Dongbaek, I say this to you all the time.

I'm the perfect person to share your secrets with.

I don't think, and my memory sucks.

Just vent it all out on me.

There's nothing to vent about.

I'm just going to think that shit happens.

There's no such thing as a good breakup.

All breakups are nasty.

That was a nasty breakup indeed.

Really? You?

Did I love him too much?

I couldn't really be understanding and forgiving with him,

unlike how I've always been.

I've never felt welcomed anywhere since I was very little,

so I got used to just accepting it and being understanding.

Hey, let's play together.

You don't have to pay for the milk program.

My classmates and their parents didn't like me because I was an orphan.

-Mom! -Mom!

They avoided the gloomy kid that I was as if I had a contagious disease.

A-reum! I'll give you a ride.

-Come on. -Hurry!

They all pitied me, saying "You poor thing,"

but no one let me into their cars.

Then I met him when I was 22.

And he became my whole universe.

Come on. Where are you going?

-Let go. -Let me explain!

I guess you don't love me anymore.

Let's just break up, then.

I was consumed by the kind of love that you can only experience when you're 22.

Why are you being like this?

The game suddenly started going so well. That's what happened.

Hey, why are you crying?

I'll...

I'll never suggest going to an Internet cafe again.

I promise you

that I'll never play

StarCraft again when I'm with you.

So don't say things like that. I can't live without you.

Hey, do you think I can live without you?

Gosh...

Don't cry.

I couldn't see anything else but him,

so I forgot about the fact that he, too, had a mother,

just like everyone else did.

2010, DONGBAEK AT THE AGE OF 25

Gosh, I've had enough of thinking.

I have no money to give you.

And I can't even talk elegantly.

I just...

hate you so much.

I really mean it. I hate you with every cell in my body.

How can I put up with you when I hate you this much?

Are you smiling or crying?

Why do you have such a sad face?

Why did it have to be Jong-ryeol? Why?

To me,

you're like...

What did she say?

Is it because you're an orphan? Did she swear at you? Did she hit you?

It's really heartbreaking to be hated, especially by your mom.

Hey, come on. I can totally win against her.

It's tough to be hated by the mom of someone you like.

I can't just accept it coolly.

It's not like I don't have a mom because I didn't want one.

Exactly. So tell me what she said. Will you just tell me?

To me,

you're like...

You know,

like

a lump of germs.

A lump of germs.

I'm like a lump of germs to her.

It's weird

how I kept thinking of my mom when I was with your mom.

If I had a mom, would she have had my back?

So what? You left him after his mom told you off?

No.

In the end, the guy has to step up.

The guy must have had an affair.

What a jerk.

You don't have to call him a jerk.

I don't even blame him or anything.

I think we can call it even

since he left Pil-gu behind with me.

Can you really call that even?

Do you like Pil-gu that much?

Try having a kid.

CAMELLIA

If your mom or my mom was like you,

then both Dongbaek and Hyang-mi

wouldn't be sitting here looking for cigarette butts.

Chief Byeon.

What?

Is the conflict between a mother-in-law and a daughter-in-law

quite troublesome?

Don't get worried about running when you can't even walk.

You don't even have a girlfriend. Why do you ask?

Well, I thought it would be better to date someone who's close with my mom.

That's idealistic.

If there wasn't any conflict between a mother-in-law and a daughter-in-law,

men's average life expectancy would reach 90 years.

They did say they're best friends.

But there is no family without such a conflict.

If there is such a family, they must live in a virtual city, a paradise,

or maybe somewhere far away

that's like a traditional fairy tale.

Aren't you going to eat?

It's because of her, isn't it?

What? Who?

Who do you think?

You just looked at Helena, didn't you? I have a great hunch.

Chief Byeon, I like Dongbaek.

-What? -I fell for her at first sight.

I've been after her ten times a day.

And the entire neighborhood knows.

Does your mom know?

-Mom! -She does know.

That's why she used her elbow.

ONGSAN DRY CLEANING

I wanted to hide

this feeling that hurts my pride.

Hey, what are you doing?

I'm late. I have to hurry.

But at this point,

I can't continue to act sophisticated.

CUSTOMER NAME: CAMELLIA, ONGSAN DRY CLEANING

Her daughter-in-law made a feast for her birthday.

She made all nine delicacies and the royal hot pot herself.

Isn't that amazing?

-Mother. -Yes?

I'm not in the mood to make

nine delicacies for your birthday.

-What? -I'll talk to my husband

and find a buffet or--

Why do I have to care about how you feel on my birthday?

Of course.

The mother-in-law's birthday isn't important at all.

The daughter-in-law's mood is more important.

Mother, my husband...

Sure, it's my son again.

I'm sure he wanted to just go to a buffet, not you.

It's not that, it's...

Never mind.

What is it?

Why do you stop in the middle of a sentence?

Hey, are you making fun of me?

I'll roughly let you know

why I don't feel like making all those delicacies.

Why would you just tell me that roughly?

Is this some kind of a joke?

He takes after his father.

He was about Gyu-tae's age now when he gave your ring to Ae-sil,

the girl at the pub, right?

What is this nonsense?

Gyu-tae takes after me!

I'm just saying.

Can you walk the rest from over there?

Why should I walk?

People in my calligraphy class always see you drop me off.

I have to be somewhere in a hurry.

Where?

The hair salon.

I'm going to the hair salon.

She's a good person.

You know her. You're her best friend.

I mean, she's so nice

and lives a heartrending life.

And I feel really bad for her.

What about me?

Don't you feel bad for your mom?

It's not a competition to see who has a worse life.

I really didn't want to say this because it makes me look awful,

but is it your mom or Dongbaek?

-What's this nonsense? -You have to choose one.

Come on, that's so cheap.

You're the one who's being cheap, you darned little jerk.

Wait, let's not use bad words. We can talk this out.

Don't you know that

I gave birth to you after your father died and worked all my life to bring you up?

Do you know how much settlement money I paid every single season?

And I went to a Buddhist temple and bowed 3,000 times

over and over. I lost all of my knee cartilages because of that.

If you have a conscience,

you of all people can't do this to me.

You said Dongbaek is nice, pretty,

-and that she's your best friend. -She is nice.

She's a poor thing, and she's pretty.

But at the very least,

she shouldn't have a son, should she?

Am I asking for too much right now?

Mom, think of this as buy one get one free.

You can get a daughter-in-law and a grandson at once.

Goodness. Why did you have to be crushing garlic right now?

I'm not going to blame her.

I don't want to go over to Camellia to say something to her.

I understand that

Dongbaek has no feelings for you, but you're obsessed with her.

I'm just going to focus on you.

So you and I have to come to a decision.

Make your choice!

I mean... Well, I...

I can't choose one as if I'm choosing what food I like.

BAEKDU MARINATED CRAB

Okay, fine. Half-and-half.

Don't be ridiculous. That's not an option.

I like her so much. What can I do?

I want to see her as soon as I wake up.

I want to run over to see her right now, too.

My feet are the magnetic north pole, and Camellia is the south pole.

Does that analogy make some sense?

What a load of bullshit.

Do I need to kick some sense into you?

I can't stop my feelings for her and my feet taking me there.

Then you can stop seeing her for just two months.

If you still feel the same after that,

I will extenuate your actions.

Do you think my love will only last for a couple of months?

It'll last forever!

EPISODE 10 WILL AIR SHORTLY

EPISODE 10

Should we get started?

No, I want the director.

Ma'am.

You have to make an appointment two weeks ahead to see her.

Our chief is really good, too.

She worked in the Hongdae area for three years.

I'm sure you're great.

But I'm going to go meet

the woman my husband's been seeing after doing my hair.

Goodness.

Director. Director?

Rod number three.

No.

Everyone has a limit that they must defend.

My limit is my pride.

I'll use the best products.

I don't want to care about someone like Dongbaek.

I wanted to ignore her with all that I have.

What brings you here?

I thought you never stop by the building.

CAMELLIA

Do you want some young radish?

She smiles well, too.

Do you have no makeup on?

Oh, I got a little busy, so I stopped in the middle.

You think you're pretty, don't you?

-Pardon? -Well,

I just thought you would think so.

Well, I don't think I'm pretty.

But I do think that I'm not too awful when it comes to my physiognomy.

Goodness, this is embarrassing.

I'm not here to talk about your physiognomy.

Legally speaking, I just have to tell you a month before,

but I thought I should tell you a little more in advance.

What is it?

Our contract expires in December.

-Yes. -I need you to move out.

Pardon? Move out? So suddenly?

"Suddenly"? This isn't sudden.

The Lease Protection Act doesn't apply. You have three months.

Ms. Hong, if this is because you wish to raise the rent,

we can talk about it--

No, I'm not going to raise the rent.

It's a shop without any windows, so once you move out,

it'll just be used to store dried seafood again.

Then I'll probably only get a quarter of what I get from you.

Then why are you asking me to...

Money isn't the problem here.

Do I have to spell it out?

You probably get what I mean, so let's not talk about this anymore.

Then go ahead and do what you were doing.

Gyu-tae is going to want to go to Yangpyeong.

Ms. Hong.

Ms. Hong, Mr. No didn't say anything,

so I wasn't prepared.

And he didn't say anything the last time I met him.

-He didn't-- -How dare you?

Are you using my husband as your shield in front of me?

It's not like that.

Dongbaek.

I want to be sophisticated to the end.

But if you keep provoking me and I end up losing it,

I'd want to be straightforward with you.

Then it'll make both of us look very awful.

So you need to be careful.

I don't like your skin, the way you talk, and your physiognomy,

but that face is the worst.

I hate that face which says, "I don't know a thing."

Do you get what I'm trying to tell you?

Dongbaek!

What's wrong? What is it?

Why do you look like a sad cow again?

I stole a bag of red pepper powder because I heard you're making kimchi.

Why do you look so sad again?

I think I got on my landlord's bad side.

What?

LET'S READ TOGETHER, SHARING AND REUSING CAMPAIGN

Darn it, why are there so many people?

Why isn't she coming to pick him up?

Why did she let someone like her look after her son?

Darn it.

Do you read?

I was just told to take it.

-Where's Mom? -We made kimchi today.

Then is Mom there alone?

Did that policeman come today?

Why? You don't like him?

I don't. Do you like him?

I don't know. I'm not really sure which side I'll take.

But that policeman is the fourth guy I hate.

-The fourth? -He comes after

Mr. No Gyu-tae, Jun-gi's dad, and the guy from the rice cake shop.

Then that means you like him best.

Why is my mom 48kg?

-What? -Why is my mom so pretty?

She's the prettiest mom in Ongsan.

It really exhausts me.

You're starting to make me want a son.

Let's go.

Doesn't she have a car?

I might as well just get her one.

Pil-gu, should we ride a car since it's hot?

What car? Do you have a car?

We'll just hitchhike.

Kang Jong-ryeol!

Is she seriously nuts?

Yong-sik, what did your mother say?

Is it okay to give this back to her?

Is that my mom's?

Just leave it here.

I'll take it when I leave and give it back to her.

I guess I shouldn't go.

My mom likes you. You guys are best friends.

Pil-gu and your mother are both against this.

So stop being so stubborn,

and stop liking me.

I do kind of feel like

I should be more careful about how I act

for about two to three months.

I'm not an adolescent kid, you see. If I totally ignore what my mom says,

I don't think it'll do you any good in the future.

So I'll make a strategic retreat...

You really don't need to explain everything to me.

What?

There's one thing I learned ever since I was really young.

No one likes Dongbaek.

Who in the world would like me?

I like you.

No, it's not like we actually dated.

And even I wouldn't be happy if Pil-gu fell for a woman like me.

But I'm really used to this, so I'm totally fine with it.

I'll just let it go like I always did.

You always remind me of a Whac-A-Mole.

You're always smiling,

but you're always hurting as well.

You have no idea how much it frustrates me.

You should listen to your mother.

No one else in this world cares about you more than she does.

So stop acting like an adolescent and act like an adult.

Don't come here again.

Does the air conditioner work properly? Is it nice and cool?

Shouldn't you be training?

-What? -Why do you come every day?

Maybe he has something more important to do.

Hey, why are you going through my car?

By the way, the landlord told us to move out.

-Really? -Don't worry.

Your mom has a lot of connections.

If you have enough money, just buy the building for her.

-You earn a lot of money. -What?

Why would I buy her that building?

Should we talk about why?

I'm so glad I'm friends with Dongbaek.

Why did you have to sit in the passenger seat?

Mr. Kang, I follow Jessica on Instagram.

-So? -Ask her to follow me, too.

We might meet each other often from now on.

OK AESTHETIC MURDER CASE WITNESS STATEMENT

You told me you love her.

I can't stop love.

You're going to tell me everything now?

Don't handle things too impatiently and end up causing trouble.

This is related to the protection of the witness you fell in love with,

so make sure you handle this calmly.

Why are there so many files?

Start with this one.

There's a video?

It's a video of the victim, Han Geum-ok,

right before she got murdered on the day of the incident.

What? Why is there a video of the victim in the witness file?

-Dongbaek's in the video. -What?

It's from the morning of the incident, so start investigating with this.

I'm sure Joker is somewhere in here.

I met her at church.

-I mean... -Today's reading.

"When you're waiting for tomorrow..."

Will the practice end in two hours?

I need to go pick up Pil-gu later.

JUNE 29, 2014

You should learn during the weekdays as well.

Get a certificate in skincare.

Then change the signboard to "Camellia Aesthetics."

You'll become a person with a professional career.

I'm a professional at making stir-fried pork.

OK AESTHETIC

Are you sure you're doing practical training?

Am I being used as a guinea pig?

I know it's second-hand, but it cost me a million won. Don't worry.

I feel like you're using me to test the second-hand machine.

Is this okay?

Just a second.

-Hello? -The door looks weird.

A reservation?

Can you come right away? We're free at the moment.

Do I just close this?

No, no one's here.

THE ONGSAN JOKER, MISSING FOR THREE MONTHS

HOROSCOPE, MONKEY

"Today will be filled with luck. Keep all your doors open."

Will I be making some money today?

Are you the one who just made a reservation?

PROFESSIONAL SKINCARE

Did you make a reservation?

Isn't it hot to wear a mask during the summer?

Did you call earlier to make a reservation?

REPORT OF INCIDENT

The seven minutes...

Why did she blast up the volume?

I was with him during those seven minutes.

And during those seven minutes...

Geum-ok died.

Is it a customer?

The sound I can't forget...

OK AESTHETIC

I think this is done.

That hoarse cough...

-Hey. -Yes, sir?

No need to go through the customer list.

It obviously looks like

it was his first time here.

Would you have known

that there'd be someone in here?

Even I don't know what this is. He probably didn't know, either.

Why would he have made a mess of the entire place

after having murdered the victim over there?

It's because he failed to find Dongbaek.

She should've just stayed still.

Geum-ok, the door...

Geum-ok.

What's wrong with this?

Geum-ok, I'm all done.

Geum-ok.

I think it's over now.

Geum-ok.

OK AESTHETIC

Geum-ok.

Geum-ok.

I think you should fix this. It's weird.

Geum-ok, the door's really weird.

The sound of his cough.

His cough was persistent, and it seemed uncontrollable.

I still can't forget that peculiar cough.

My gosh!

PLEASE STOP BEING A JOKE...

It's obvious that Joker was startled.

This woman must've caught him off guard.

She always seemed so misfortunate.

-Do you remember anything? -How do you feel?

-How did she survive? -Hey, keep everyone in order!

Isn't she the owner of the bar?

-Dongbaek? -Yes, that's her.

-You're right. -What in the world happened?

Detective, I can't take this.

I really can't live like this.

A news reporter dropped by earlier,

and a fortune teller even offered to perform an exorcism for me

to get rid of my bad luck.

But you see,

I really

didn't see anything.

So there's nothing to tell.

I just saw him from behind.

Just leave me out of this.

You can catch him without my help.

Dongbaek, then let me ask you one more thing.

Did the fire sprinkler really turn on

right when he stood in front of you?

He didn't turn it on to get rid of any evidence?

He really ran away because it turned on all of a sudden?

Is that what happened?

When the guy was standing in front of me,

I heard the fire alarm go off along with the fire sprinkler.

-And I think someone knocked on the door. -The door?

Yes, but I'm really not sure. Everything happened all of a sudden.

But he was definitely standing right in front of me.

The fire sprinkler

saved your life.

What?

But why did it go off at that exact moment?

Is that kind of coincidence even possible?

REPORT OF INCIDENT

OK AESTHETIC MURDER CASE WITNESS STATEMENT

Dongbaek managed to live thanks to whatever luck she had back then.

But I'm worried about her.

The entire neighborhood knew the witness.

So there's no way Joker didn't find out.

So the great Joker stopped murdering people

after he met Dongbaek?

Who knows if he stopped or if he's just taking a break?

Anxiety needs to be exterminated.

We should find the root, beat it into a pulp,

and burn it to ashes.

What's wrong with your eyes?

I'm not going to leave something uncertain like luck to protect Dongbaek.

Stop glaring like that.

Chief.

I'm going to catch Joker.

I'll catch him and let him know that he messed with the wrong person.

-Hey! -My gosh, you startled me.

Why did you jaywalk? You're a cop.

Mom, what brings you here?

I'm here to file a report.

-A report for what? -A thief broke into our house.

What?

Someone stole an entire bag of red pepper powder.

I'm going to take a look at the security footage

-and catch that son of a-- -Mom.

-I took it. -What?

I took it and gave it to Dongbaek.

-Mom. -Hey.

I should file a report. I won't forgive you.

Mom, listen to me.

You see...

Gosh, I'm too embarrassed to say this to you.

Then don't say it.

I can't do what you asked and stay away from her for two months.

I can't do that!

Gosh, Mom.

Mom, stop... My gosh.

Mom, you can beat me all you want, but I won't change my mind.

You can think of me as an immature kid

and hire some guys to beat me into a pulp,

but that's still not going to stop me from liking Dongbaek.

Are you saying you're going to choose her

over your own mother who raised you for 30 years?

Mom, I know what you mean. I know you raised me for 30 years.

But if I don't protect Dongbaek,

I'll regret it for the next 30 years.

Why are you glaring like that again?

Mom, I really mean it.

I'm really sorry to say this.

But you always let me do what I wanted for the past 30 years.

So let me do what I want again just this once!

What am I going to do with that darn punk?

CAMELLIA

I almost fell for him.

I wonder if she got home safely.

Subtitle translation by Eun-sook Yoon

WHEN THE CAMELLIA BLOOMS

My life's been like cotton candy, unlike how it usually is.

I can't believe you admitted that.

It's all over now.

I'm just not that good of a person.

I promise that nothing will happen. You don't need to worry.

-Dongbaek. -Don't come here again.

Gyu-tae!

If you want to take me somewhere, how about a motel?

Should I just kill them all?

-I caught someone last night. -Who?

-Why aren't you finishing your sentence? -Let me go.

-I told you not to hold her hand. -Yong-sik.
